In HEX mode "A..F" screen menu mapped to both softkeys and first row of function keys

Post by mikevy73 »

In HEX mode (BASE->HEXM) selecting the submenu "A..F" does not correctly remap the screen menu to the softkey row only. The second row of keys (Sum, 1/x, etc.) is also reassigned to access the screen menu (as in original 42).

I am running Firmware v3.4a

Good catch, confirmed. Amazing that this has never been noticed until now...

IIRC, that double assignment was a general phenomenon months ago - hoped it was corrected generally but ...

That's definitely a DM42 bug. Because [TOP.FCN] is replaced by [SETUP] these TOP.FCN are no longer available when in HEX Mode. Needs to be rectified.
